''It was the established custom of the late Board of Supervisors to issue warrants upon all sorts of fic- titious claims, but the present Board have established an entirely differ ent rule. They, as well as their predecessors in office, issue war rants ad libitum, but without any claim whatever, so you see where the difference lies. Step right up to the star chamber all you who are suffering with impecuniosity and get your 'divy' from the public crib. Now's your time, so step up to the 'boodle-shop' at once; no trouble to sign warrants. ."-Critic.
 The editor of the Critic knew, when he was writing the above par agraph, that he was wantonly, will fully and maliciously slandering two as honest and conscientious men as there are in Apache county. So fur as the Supervisors of this county are concerned-both for the two years just passed, as we'll as the present Board-no county in this Territory, or any other State or Territory. have had a more worthy set of officials. Gentlemen who have striven earnestly and honestly to bring about reform in county matters; but who have been ham, pered and thwarted by persons in official positions, and a number of citizens who, if not 'particeps crim- inis' with the thieves, were in active sympathy with them, and have done, and are doing, everything in their power to prevent their being brought to justice. The Critic by it's writings and utterances has placed itself in the list.

The Cattle Business.

The Prairie Farmer gives he following
wonderful figures on the volume of the
Chicago cattle trade for two weeks:
During the two weeks ending Saturday,
June Is. very nearly one hundred thous-
and cattle go, 1869 came TO the Chicago
Cattle Yards alone-a larger number, we
believe, than were ever before received
in the same time, ut any cattle mart in the
world OF these, A. 629 head arrived
during the week ending June llth, and
30, $50 during the six days, June - Is.
This is more than six every minute, ten
hours day. This number has certainly
never been equaled in Chicago. or any
where else, since cattle were first raised
tor market A hundred cattle in drove
makes pretty large show, few have
ever seen 1000 head together. Think
of So droves of | 1000 each, with $50
left over 1t requires, on the average,
about SIX freight cars to carry 100 cattle.
Nearly all these $3.50 arrived by rail-
way. requiring. therefore, 3,2l2 cars
loaded full and if al, came in together.
the train would stretch out about %
miles If driven along in the road. CIV
ing each animal - feet in the line. the
line OF cattle would extend 1913 miles, or
nearly from Chicago to the Mississippi
river
